coming announcement!
by buffalosrfree inthe much looked for (or so it seems) announcement coming to the finale of a watchtower study near you, may just be the thing about the book study and if so due to the time of year it is (at least in the northern hemisphere) it would make a fine opportunity for one and all in the congregation to meet say 6-6:30pm to participate in the field circus.
that way more people would be a home and therefore there would be more people to (irritate) talk to.
who knows, whatever it is, if it is in fact a change, it won't be for the betterment of the rank and file publisher.

speculation on the upcoming announcement!
by buffalosrfree inhas anyone considered that they may join the bs/theo/svc mtgs so that the congregation can have a congregational service night together and cover more territories now that most people are home (that way we can irritate more of them) and have more opportunities to spread the bad (oops i mean good) news it is certainly a possibility, especailly considering the marked increase in acceptance of obedience to the fds (i.e.
9 angry men in bethel the gb) it sure makes me wonder.
i can care less as i am inconsistent in my ministry and don't care if they like it or not.

The Army's looking for a few good... ex-convicts?
by nvrgnbk inmilitary waivers for ex-convicts increaseby ann scott tysonwashington post staff writer .
tuesday, april 22, 2008; page a01 the army admitted about one-fourth more recruits last year with a record of legal problems ranging from felony convictions and serious misdemeanors to drug crimes and traffic offenses, as pressure to increase the size of u.s. ground forces led the military to grant more waivers for criminal conduct, according to new data released yesterday.
such "conduct waivers" for army recruits rose from 8,129 in fiscal 2006 to 10,258 in fiscal 2007. for marine corps recruits, they increased from 16,969 to 17,413. in particular, the army accepted more than double the number of applicants with convictions for felony crimes such as burglary, grand larceny and aggravated assault, rising from 249 to 511, while the corresponding number for the marines increased by two-thirds, from 208 to 350. the vast majority of such convictions stem from juvenile offenses.
